Hi there! I'm Siya - a 19-year-old with a big heart and an even bigger love for kids! I've been babysitting for over 5 years and have experience with little ones of all ages, including children with special needs. I'm CPR certified, have a current background check, reliable transportation, and a clean driving record. I'm also a huge pet lover and always bring lots of energy, patience, and positivity. Whether it's playtime, snack time, or bedtime, I'll make sure your kids feel safe, happy, and cared for! Let me know if you'd like to schedule an interview or have any follow up questions.
I am currently in graduate school and plan on pursuing my doctorate. Im a 4.0 student and love to read and learn. I am good at teaching as well, so I will be able to help with homework. I’m very fun, caring and understanding. I’m very adventurous and love playing games and doing activities. I love working out, doing yoga and I believe in a healthy body and mind. I love working with children, they light up the room. I also have my own car, it’s a 2022 Audi so it is safe. I am currently working full time at a microchip manufacturing company.
I am an aunt to 4 girls and 2 boys, ranging from the ages of 4-16. Being that I first became an aunt at 8 years old, I grew up helping care for all ages. I love spending time with my nieces and nephews, especially the younger kids. Additionally, I grew up with both dogs and cats of all temperaments. I also occasionally care for a pair of Peterbald cats when the owners are out of town, which also includes housesitting. I have two bachelor degrees from NAU and currently work full time for a law firm. I am a very organized individual and always punctual. I love to keep a clean home and happy animals, and love spending time with my nieces and nephews. I would love to pass along the love to your household!
Hello everyone! My name is Amy. I am new to the app. I have been a special needs caregiver for 15 years. Currently I help manage a special needs group home. I’m comfortable with all ages, as well as pets (I have 2 dogs, 1 cat). I’m good with running errands, light housework, meal making, feeding, bathing, changing diapers, home organization, homework assistance, pet care, driving, sports, activities, etc. I coach soccer for my stepkids and I love keeping kids active. I’m CPR/First Aid certified as well as certified as a caregiver. I am looking to make a change from my special needs group home career into nannying while I go back to school to receive my Masters. I’m reliable, responsible, patient, kind and understanding. My top priority is to make sure your child feels safe, happy and cared for. References available. I look forward to meeting you soon! :)

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
